Nickle Family Foundation Grants

Funding requests must fall under one of the following categories:

Youth Enrichment,

Health and Wellness,

Family and Community Wellness,

Animal Welfare.

Our geographic focus is Calgary and area. We support agencies providing services to people living in the Calgary region, and may consider supporting Calgary-based charities providing services elsewhere. The foundation's goal is to strengthen the community by funding non-profit organizations in Alberta which excel at serving important community needs. Funding priorities change over time in response to the Directors' perceptions of need within the community. The foundation funds broadly across the sectors of social services, culture, education and health. In recent years social services has been a strong focus.
